Counter-Strike 1.6 is getting a full remake, but not by Valve
A legendary FPS is making a comeback, but not in the way you might expect. While modern titles continue to push the boundaries of competitive gaming, some classics never fade, and one of the most iconic shooters of all time is about to get a fresh coat of paint.
Counter-Strike 1.6 is getting a full remake, but surprisingly (or unsurpisingly, depending on your opinion of the developer), Valve isn’t the one behind it. The new project, called CS:Legacy, was revealed on March 16 via a surprise YouTube trailer. The developers behind it, the ProMod team, have built the game from the ground up using Valve’s 2013 Source Engine SDK. They’ve rewritten major systems like the renderer and shaders, ensuring a faithful yet modernized version of the 1.6 experience. Unlike previous community efforts to revive older Counter-Strike games as mods, this is a full-fledged standalone release.
